Relaxing Stay in Cusco
The property is in the middle of town, just a walking distance to the plazas, good restaurants and several local attractions. It was very convenient. It is spacious, four bedrooms was plenty sufficient for our family of 5 to relax, watch Netflix movies and YouTube, cook, etc. The owner, Marita, was very responsive to all our needs and questions.

Pest Problem
This was a cute house with an antique Bohemian Feel. It feels a bit like a tree house as the top floor and main are separated by slabs of wood. Maria was overall helpful and nice to communicated with. Amalia who is the cleaner/care taker was very sweet, but did not show up when she said she would. We did have some issue. 1. This house has a pest problem. There are thick black spiders in the bedrooms upstairs and streams of ants in the kitchen. 2. The hot water is very poor and inconsistent. There is a plug that needs to go in for the hot water. Even after plugging that in, we had to jump in and out of the shower as the water turns from freezing to boiling every 2 to 4 minutes. 3. The bath stopper in the bathroom is broken. 4. You hear dogs barking and cars honking all night. The street looks tiny, and it looks like it should be quiet, but it seems that the dogs congregate next door because the noise is impossible. 5. The internet was very weak. 6. The house is dark. It’s actually exactly as it looks in the photos. 7. Maria was upset that we had left the house a mess. And it certainly is true, it was left a mess. But in my defense, I knew that we would leave a larger mess than covered in the cleaning fee, so I offered to pay Amalia (who Maria said would come) on my own to clean. She never came. So overall we had a pleasant stay. I think if they fix those few issues above, and not feel the need to unnecessarily threaten guests, it is the perfect house to rent in Cusco. Also a note to future renters: they offer plug in heaters in every room. A lot of people complained about the house being cold in previous comments, but we did not have this issue at all.

Highly recommend
Our family stayed in the Colonial House and we loved it. The house was beautiful, clean, and only a few blocks away from the plaza and all of the historic sites, museums, and shopping. There is also a supermarket very close which was convenient. The owner Maria offered us personal attention and helped us with everything we needed. She has a farm out in Sacred Valley and invited us to visit one day for a traditional meal. I highly recommend this home and thank Maria for making our trip a great one.

Great place for a large group in Cusco
My group of 6 travelers loved staying here during our time in Cusco. The place was comfortable, clean, and Marita took the time both when we arrived and throughout our visit to make sure we felt comfortable. She even took the time to recommend sites to see and her favorite restaurants.

Beautiful property, chonvenient location
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Cusco. The home was, clean and well appointed. We were greeted by the host upon our arrival and they were available to address any needs we had. We were a family of six and had plenty of room. There was one watch out: we were there in July and the night time temperatures were in the low 30s F and the house was NOT HEATED. There was a fireplace, but it provided limited heat through the house.

Perfect Place!!
We loved staying at the Colonial House! It was the perfect location close to the Plaza de las Armas, maybe an 8 minute walk. Marita was very hospitable and helpful. I would definitely recommend staying here with a group of friends or one family. The house did get a bit cold, so be sure to utilize the fireplace upstairs and all of the extra blankets!
